Is gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 corrupted?

[John Daniel Doucette]

Hi,

If I test gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2 I get the error:

gcc-core-3.3.1-3.tar.bz2: bad magic number (file not created by bzip2)
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.

I downloaded it twice from mirrors.rcn.net and once from mirrors.kernel.org 
with the same results. Setup doesn't have any problem with the MD5 sum.

My bzip2 reports:

bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor.  Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001.

Is this error expected? Is my bzip2 too old to recognize some new bzip2 format?
